Pipeline painter workspace, you should save the pipeline. You can
then reuse it later.</p>

<br><A NAME="TI4825"></A><h4>For a new pipeline</h4>
<A NAME="TI4826"></A><p>When you save a pipeline for the first time, you must specify
a name. The name can be any valid identifier with up to 80 characters.
A common convention is to prefix the name with the string <b>pipe_</b>. You
can also specify the library in which the pipeline is saved.</p>
